Having problems with embedding autocad L.T. Drawings in excel 2002. I get
diagonal lines across the dwg area that I can't get rid of. I do a lot of
Shop dwgs for customers and need to have a way of emailing these dwgs to
those without a cad program or viewer. Perhaps there is an alternate method
of converting these dwgs to a pdf or similar format. Any help would be
greatly appreciated....

floyd, type "copyclip" on the command line in Autocad. enter and it will
ask you to select objects. Frame a window around that that you want to imbed
and hit enter. Go to your spreadsheet, pick your location and "paste".
You'll probably have to size your insert, so keep your window tight.
